When I came here today, it seemed like the whole wiki was down!  If you google wikiindex and try the top links, nothing works.  It turns out that "http://www.wikiindex.org/Special:Recentchanges" is not working, but "http://www.wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges" is working.  Has someone been fiddling with the wiki software?  I think this is a MediaWiki configuration option.  Please fix it!--[[User:69.87.203.22|69.87.203.22]] 06:18, 12 February 2007 (PST) *** Oh, I see here [[Community Portal]] that you are aware of the issue...  So I just need to make the point that for the moment it is a PR issue, that would lead some seekers to being unable to find a working website.--[[User:69.87.203.22|69.87.203.22]] 06:51, 12 February 2007 (PST)

I can't find anywhere here to give feedback on the UI/software etc, so I guess I'll do it here... It is a UI glitch to put the five-line copyright blurb right beneath the edit box, above the Summary/Save area. If the copyright blurb were moved down, wholly or partly, so that the Summary/Save could be right below the edit area, then everthing I need (from the edit toolbar down to the Save buttons) would fit on one screen; as it is, it doesn't all quite fit, forcing me to scroll up and down instead of being able to set-and-forget.--69.87.200.20 05:19, 30 January 2007 (PST)

Please add redirect from wikiinfo to wikinfo.

Please tell us how to do redirects.--216.236.252.235 09:42, 1 February 2007 (PST)

Click the word "REDIRECT" at the bottom of the edit screen and put the page to be redirected to inside the brackets. — User:Sean Fennel@ 14:07, 2 February 2007 (PST)
